History

Salisbury is so named because it sits on a broad, flat section of the larger Hempstead Plains that reminded late 19th Century Long Islanders of the Salisbury Plain in England, where Stonehenge is located. This name was made the CDP’s official name for the 1990 census, replacing the older name of South Westbury (which referenced its geographic location immediately south of Westbury).
